A vibrant and healthy dish featuring white fish fillets baked with juicy cherry tomatoes, briny olives, and fresh herbs. Perfect for a flavorful and quick dinner.
Ingredients:
4 white fish fillets (e.g., cod, tilapia, or snapper)
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
1/2 cup Kalamata olives, sliced
1/2 red onion, thinly sliced
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon paprika
Juice of 1 lemon
Zest of 1 lemon
Salt and pepper, to taste
Directions:
Prepare the Oven and Baking Dish:
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Lightly grease a baking dish with olive oil.
Season the Fish:
Pat the fish fillets dry with paper towels and arrange them in the prepared baking dish. Season both sides of the fillets with salt and pepper.
Make the Marinade:
In a small bowl, combine olive oil, minced garlic, oregano, paprika, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Mix well and drizzle the marinade evenly over the fish fillets.
Add Vegetables:
Scatter the halved cherry tomatoes, sliced Kalamata olives, and red onion around the fish in the baking dish.
Bake the Fish:
Bake in the preheated oven for 15–20 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
Garnish and Serve:
Sprinkle fresh parsley over the baked fish before serving. Serve hot with crusty bread, steamed rice, or roasted vegetables for a complete Mediterranean-inspired meal.
Tips:
Swap Kalamata olives for capers if you prefer a tangy twist.
Add a sprinkle of feta cheese before baking for extra creaminess.
Pair with a simple arugula salad drizzled with olive oil and lemon juice.
